Looking forward to this game, will be good to see the new signings and to see how Leeds are shaping.

I do think the sport needs a strong Leeds and that's been missing for two years now.

It’ll be interesting to see who plays where. Watching interviews on Wigan TV it sounds like French has been running more at fullback and he himself mentioned Leuluai organising the team in the halves. Add in Hardaker mentioning playing at centre and you’d image the back line will be French, Marshall, Hardaker, Bibby, Burgess, Leuluai and Hastings.

You’re right regarding Leeds. Good to see them have a struggle but the sport in this country really could do with a few years worth (soon) of there being a strong Leeds, Wigan, Saints, Warrington and Hull all at the same time. It would be even better if there was a renaissance at Bradford and they got back to a position of strength.

I got my ticket online today but I'm surprised they aren't opening the east stand where i have my season ticket it would create a better atmosphere with 2 opposite stands open although according to the ticket office they aren't expecting a big crowd

Sorry, for the mistake and yes I have got a ticket. Block WS3 Row M but I am not putting the number on for a obvious reason.

As at today, its either 47-52 or 74. All the rest are unsold.

As you have bought a ticket, my money is on 74, as its a single one at the end of the row.

I suppose it depends on what the club define as 'big crowd', I think we will see a pretty decent crowd for a friendly (weather dependent), reasons below:

Most supporters (including me) wont have purchased tickets yet, still ten days to go yet.
Ticket prices are £15 & £5.
First chance to see new signings.
It's against decent opposition who also made good signings.
It's at the DW and not away for a change.
It's Farrell testimonial, a popular and likeable player.
Sunday game 3pm KO.
Is it on Wigan TV? I've not seen anything yet to say it is?
But most of all we have all been starved of a good game of RL, that's got to get you out of the house, surely?

Wrong, it is not 74 as I will not be on my own.

You will never be a Sherlock Holmes!

I’m guessing it’ll be announced as in Wigan TV like 30 mins before kick off. To ensure people go to support Faz. Or on demand just after the final whilste. I can’t go so hopefully be on there
